  1. Cool. Period correct case as well. I got a couple real good ones from 0 feedback sellers. I was able to talk to both on the phone prior to payments well.
  2. Get a vinyl wrap done. I havent noticed any of my guitars get to that point.
  3. If Im at anytime going for a pick and choose. The guitar does have to be the right one of choice. As well as its resale value if I decide its not what I like down the road.
  4. They dont use very much. What does the rest of the guitar look like?
  5. I had a set of those. They even had the little swing out cranks.
  6. Nice and clear here today. Blue sky, 30c all day. Light breeze blowing the smoke SE. 😁
  7. There all in wooden racks in there cases. Humidity is at 45 to 47 % Hardwood floors insulated room. In the basement. Pretty much 2/3rds of the basement is guitars. The room gets checked daily to make sure everything is fine. ,.
  8. No , I collect Gibson and Martin Archtops .
  9. I have a few. But they have not seen day light in 20 some years
  10. The Mary Ford Les Paul was on Ebay 20 plus years ago for a hefty sum. Along with a Les Paul that was apparently owned Les Paul himself . They were also in the vintage sellers monthly magazine .
  11. Well I can see a re creation 3 pickup Les Paul Mary Ford being made for the healthy sum of 20 grand a each a relic version for 30 grand . With a complete travel log of where its been.
  12. Did you have the guitar shipped to you from Daves? I dont think Ive seen a Gibson truss rod maxed out on a new acoustic. Seems kind of strange.
  13. Jdgm isnt far off. They have gone up. It all depends what your will to spend.
  14. Its another way to avoid a warranty claim. Mess the finish up before it gets sold. 😃 then there will be a cracked top version. Cleated ready to go.
  15. Sorry but the New faded guitars do nothing for me.
  16. Are we talking the vintage style reissues? If so. I looked and tried out a J35 yesterday. The tone was nice . but. I sure did not like the wide neck. Very round baseball bat neck. The fingerboard felt like it had some sort of wax coating on it . Maybe it was that one guitar. Have you seen others like this? not sure where Gibson was going with this one. as for the finish being faded. What there trying to achieve with the finish is different its a 7 k canadian guitar here.
  17. Any idea how many guitars are out the door there each day?
  18. I sold one of those about 5 years ago. A clean example. Then 4500.
  19. Im in Calgary. Its very smoky here .
  20. L00. 14 fret. On the neck block inside should be a few numbers.
  21. Could it be a Disgruntle airline employee?
  22. Try a cut up apple for absorbing the scent of cig smoke.
  23. Well Im sure Gibson will have a Great future with the New CEO in charge. Cool video Nice seeing a actual Guitar guy explaining the comparisons. Of Old to New.
